Reply to comment by cepegma in [OC] Tech jobs trends in infrastructure as code: Docker & Jenkins the most asked skills by companies by cepegma

So gaining AWS CDK as a skill is still a work-in-progress for me. I use the documentation a lot, along with relying on my former AWS experience to know what I need. If it’s interesting to you, I wrote a blog post on How I Learned AWS which shares my experience with AWS, but not necessarily the CDK.

We use Python and TypeScript already on our team, so changing over to using CDK instead of Terraform was a matter of consolidating our tech stack to have one fewer language to stay up-to-date on.

I read your story, nice professional journey. It looks like you changed your career. I'm curious to know, beyond the influence of your father, what was your motivation to enter the cloud domain? By the way, what did you do before going into the cloud?
